Most art institutions, both great and small, have in their collections wonderful works of art that are rarely or—in some cases—never seen.

The complexities of available space, the volume of collected work, and the daunting task of selection militate against the possibility of showing all the work that should be shown. But we at Leslie/Lohman are determined to struggle against the odds and are proud to present this dazzlingly eclectic selection of works from our permanent collection.

From the rose gold of Marion Pinto’s Sleeping Church Nude to the neo-classicism of David Legare’s Eros & Endymion and through all of the other 85 marvelous works presented, we know that we have created a feast for the eye, the mind, the body and the soul. And you can be sure that shows of this sort will be a regular feature of our future programming.
